Excerpt from Guide to the Collections
The present issue may be regarded as an enlarged third edition having the additional advantage of illustrations.
Most of the principal objects will be found mentioned in the text. One rather important omission may be noted here. Among the examples of Tamil jewellery referred to on page 17, attention should have been directed to the Thali, the marriage emblem of the Tamil race, which is worn round the neck mounted upon a more or less elaborate necklace.
